For the Chisinau part of the trip we had a guide who walked with us and talked us through history and culture for a few hours. For the trip out of the city effectively we had a driver rather than a guide. Still an enjoyable day, but perhaps not as some would expect

We arrived thursday night and Alexandru was able to accomodate our request for a weekend 2 day tour of Moldova. It was still winter time and even though some of the spots we weren’t able to access, he was able to show us the beauty of Moldova monasteries and its wine culture. We went around on a private car with driver. Alexandru’s command of english is very good and he was able to answer our questions regarding Moldova. We highly recommend him to all english speaking travelers.

The Republic of Moldova was Soviet for almost 50 years and it has left its mark, one is Transnistria. And why not a trip to the pro-Russian separatist region of Transnistria? A small return to the USSR for a day, to say "I was there" .., to discover a territory without territory ... .., a country without a country ... The political situation is still complex today with Moldova, the tension is palpable but not dangerous for a foreign tourist. Visiting Transnistria is possible because it is not instinctively against tourism. Our agency organizes this trip with a mixture of discovery, pleasure of the palate and meeting with the soil. You will be able to discover the authentic aspects of a region still under a model that was thought to be out of date.

Inclusions: Professional guide, Private transportation all day, Tickets to all sites included in the itinerary

Exclusions: Optional excursions, Food and drinks, Personal expenses

Great way to see two of the most interesting sites in Moldova. The Curchi monastery was beautiful, and the old Orhei village was beautiful. The authentic lunch at the ecolodge there was amazing as well. Friendly and professional driver. Definitely recommend!

I was on a tour to Milestii Mici and I found that it is quite easy on my own (unless you actually visit the winery, where you are assigned a guide). The tour is very fast and simple, because I wanted to find out more and see the actual process of wine production (how to harvest, where to store, how to turn into wine, how to store, how to bottle in bottles). at the outlet is a store where you can find good wines at low prices ...
